This was such a Devney Perry the Edens vibe and I loved it. Romantic suspense, small town realness, and a cute romance with NO convoluted bullshit 3rd act break up. I already know this is a series I’m going to devour.

While I was unsure how I would like Grae's book, as she was previously my least favorite character, it has been my favorite so far. What can I say? I feel like this series just keeps getting better as you go!
I absolutely loved the backstory between Grae and Caden. It was unexpected, but also completely perfect. I had been wondering the cause for their change in relationship mentioned in the previous two books, and honetsly I could not come up with any good answers that I felt would justify their present tense bickering and back and forth. But of course, Catherine proved me wrong!
I really loved the emotional connection between Grae and Caden. The evolution and rediscovery of their relationship was so lovely to read. I was here for it, for them! They are my new favorite couple of the series.
Caden was dealing with so much, and my heartstrings were really pulling for him. Can I just say... I hate his family. They are the actual worst. While I did like his mom, I even got frustrated with her from time to time. But his devotion to and love for Grae? Umm... perfection 🤌.
I will say I did guess the "villian" of this story, but I count that as a win because I'm currently sitting at a 60/40 success rate. Its hard to get it right with Catherine's wizardry.

I’m not a billionaire romance girlie but make it a cozy mountain resort billionaire who cares so deeply for people in his life and I love them. There is nothing Catherine Cowles can’t make me love!!
I loved seeing the Hartley family and being back in Cedar Ridge. The protectiveness of Caden and the brothers was wonderful. I completely understood Graes character and drive for some more independence from her overbearing family. The representation of type 1 was great and it’s something I haven’t seen it often in books. I also loved how outdoorsy Grae was and the nature in this town. It did get a smidge repetitive towards the end but Catherine always kills it with a twist and high stakes!! 3.75 stars!

Wow! As this series continues I fall more and more into the abyss of perfection. Caden and Grae's story really moved me. It touched the heart in so many ways. The struggles they endure are dangerous and very unexpected. The twist at the end threw me for a loop.
Overall this book is sweet and spicy with a bit of danger thrown in. It is pure perfection as this writer really puts her heart into her characters and the story shows it. I love the Lost and Found series and I cannot wait to see Roan's story and Aspen as well. I want to know all the secrets that they have.
On to book 4....
